“Oh my god! What’s going on? Why is The Peacock sending us meals?”

“The Peacock is almost as good as the Imperial Hotel. I’d heard that it’s one of the businesses owned by Nolan Group.”

“Good God, have you heard of the news? Mr. Nolan was at the hospital today. Someone had insulted Dr. Berry, and Mr. Nolan was furious!”

“I saw Mr. Nolan’s assistant, Mr. White. He was the one who had given out instructions for The Peacock’s staff.”

Ashlyn was sorting out her documents when someone knocked on her office door.

“Come in,” she muttered.

The door swung open with a creak, and the sounds of wheels rolling traveled into her ears.

Ashlyn raised her head in surprise to find Lucas pushing in a trolley.

“The Peacock’s senior server, Lucas Nolan, will be serving you today.” The man’s deep voice reverberated in the office.

Ashlyn cocked her brows. “I’m sorry. I’ve invited my colleagues for dinner at the Imperial Hotel.”

The person who had called was so excited, that their voices had nearly shattered glass.
